Vidal Sassoon revolutionized the art of hairstyling and left an indelible mark on popular culture. Sassoon always said that the Five-Point haircut was his finest piece of work and the hardest to achieve. Cut on British model Grace Coddington and photographed by David Montgomery, the Five-Point has stood the test of time to become an enduring legacy of Vidal’s work, with this geometrically rigorous style coming to define the 1960s.
